Do you know the advantages of high-purity boehmite?

2025-11-17

The core advantages of high-purity pseudoboehmite:

1. Extreme Purity

High purity means extremely low levels of impurity ions (such as sodium, iron, and silicon). These impurities are influencing factors in many chemical reactions, significantly affecting the activity and lifespan of the final product.

Applications:

Catalysts: As a precursor for catalyst supports, high purity ensures that the support itself does not introduce side reactions, allowing active metal components (such as platinum and palladium) to function more efficiently and significantly extending catalyst lifespan.

Lithium-ion Battery Separator Coating: In lithium-ion battery separator coating, high purity avoids impurity contamination of the electrolyte and side reactions, greatly improving battery safety and cycle life.

High-End Ceramics: The produced alumina ceramics have a uniform structure, high mechanical strength, and excellent electrical insulation properties.

2.Ultra-Large Specific Surface Area

High-purity boehmite naturally possesses a huge specific surface area; Zibo Xiangrun's boehmite boasts a specific surface area exceeding 290 m²/g.

Applications:

Catalytic Applications: The enormous specific surface area provides a broad platform for the high dispersion of active components, allowing reactant molecules to fully contact and react, thereby significantly improving catalytic efficiency.

Adsorption and Purification: Its large surface energy enables efficient adsorption of various molecules, making it an ideal material for preparing high-performance adsorbents and desiccants.

3. Tunable Pore Structure

Through advanced synthetic processes, the pore size and volume of high-purity boehmite can be precisely designed and controlled, resulting in different structures ranging from macropores and mesopores to micropores.

Applications:

Shape-Selective Catalysis: For reactant molecules of different sizes, supports with specific pore sizes can be designed to achieve "shape-selective catalysis," allowing only the target molecules to enter the reaction, thus improving reaction selectivity and product purity.

Molecular Sieves and Supports: These form the basis for preparing high-performance molecular sieves and customized catalyst supports.

4.Excellent Colloidal Solubility and Formability

High-purity boehmite forms a stable colloidal solution in water, exhibiting excellent adhesion and formability.

Applications:

Easy to Process: It can be easily prepared into various forms such as microspheres, strips, and coatings through processes such as spray drying, extrusion, and coating, meeting the needs of different industrial reactors and application scenarios.

High Product Strength: Alumina carriers or ceramic bodies prepared from it have high mechanical strength, capable of withstanding the wear and pressure in industrial production.

Choosing high-purity boehmite is not just choosing a raw material, but also choosing a commitment to high performance, high reliability, and high consistency. In an increasingly competitive market, controlling material quality from the source is key to gaining a technological advantage.
